    Agh, so sorry about that!! I sent emails/tweets to redirect people to Easons but not many people got it in time. Next time it will organised with military precision. Please forgive my horrific idiocy!

    Well, you can say that again, especially for people who were travelling and had no access to a computer.

    I was waiting outside twisted pepper with another girl, Natalie. Wasn't too disappointed as got a lovely pair of boots ha. I wouldn't be able to meet up outside Dublin if there was to be another meeting.

    I suggest organising it via facebook group, that way we can all post and see what the best thing is, and also if people need directions to the venue or whatever we can also put them up there

    Wasn't able to make it as I was working. Yeah I think the facebook group is the way forward. Most people check it fairly often out of habit and a private group is handiest for keeping tabs on.

    I just saw this stuff about the Facebook group now. Good idea! We've got a Google group set up, I sent the link around yesterday.

    Hello,

    I'm very interested in joining such group, I am 35 but don't look it, yes.. I am very fortunate! I am currently based in Letterkenny (new job) but have no problem traveling to Dublin on weekends for the meetings.

    Are there any thoughts for genre?

    Hi Purewanderer, I'd be interested too, I'm looking to join a writer's group, I'm 31 but have only recently gotten back into writing, so a laid back approach sounds good to me.
